What is a Heat Pump?
A heat pump is a device capable of extracting heat from low-temperature environments and transferring it to higher-temperature environments. Like an air conditioner, but distinct from conventional electric heaters or combustion boilers, heat pumps utilize the thermal energy in the environment for heating or cooling purposes. During winter, a heat pump extracts heat from external air, underground soil, or bodies of water to heat indoor spaces. Conversely, it reverses its function during summer, expelling indoor heat to achieve cooling.
